Noorder IJdijk 691023 NT AmsterdamSchellingwoude-West

Wake up overlooking the IJ. Uninterrupted views across the water. Freehold property. A generous 139 m² plot with a 19 meter deep garden and a garage at the rear. This is one of those places where Amsterdam briefly feels like the country-side yet you’re still right in the city. Noorder IJdijk 69 is a former lock keeper’s house full of character, history, and above all: potential. Living where water and tranquility meet Here, you live right on the IJ. That view never gets old. No neighbors across the street-just water. No hustle and bustle-just space. Schellingwoude has a village-like, relaxed atmosphere. Yet hop on your bike and you’ll be in the city in no time. It’s that rare combination you usually have to choose between-here, you don’t. Noorder IJdijk is known for its distinctive row of former lock keeper’s houses. Modest in design, authentic in appearance. Not mass construction, but history. Here, you greet your neighbors. Here, you hear the wind sweeping across the water. Here, life moves at a slightly different pace. Ground floor - a blank canvas in an iconic location You enter into the hallway, which leads to the living room. A pleasant, bright space with large windows and that view! The finishings are simple: laminate flooring, wallpapered walls, and plasterboard ceilings. Think of it as a foundation. A starting point. This is where you can truly make the home your own. At the rear, the kitchen is located in the side extension. Simple and linear in layout, with tiled flooring and underfloor heating. Functional and practical. The washing machine connection and space for the appliance are currently located here as well. From the kitchen, you step into the rear hallway, where you’ll find the toilet. This area also provides access to the storage room, which houses the central heating system and the entrance to the cellar - ideal for additional storage space. From the rear hallway, you also have direct access to the garden. Sleeping with a view! Upstairs, you’ll find the landing and two bedrooms (formerly three, easily reinstated). The front bedroom offers what this home is all about: views over the IJ. Waking up with water right outside your window. This room features laminate flooring and wallpaper and provides direct access to the bathroom with shower and washbasin. The second bedroom is also finished with laminate flooring and wallpaper. Spacious enough to be divided into two rooms again. Ideal for a family, a home office, or a guest room. The garden - 19 meters of freedom And then there’s the garden. Over 19 meters deep-rare in Amsterdam. Create multiple areas here: a large terrace directly behind the house, a play area for children, a vegetable garden, or a long dining table to enjoy the evening sun. At the back of the garden stands a detached garage of approximately 27 m². Not in perfect condition, but versatile. Storage, hobby space, workshop-or a solid base for renovation. This is where the potential lies.
